I recommend against Optima. Believe it or not the top rated
battery is Duralast. I would recommend that.

I have replaced the battery a year ago with a Zap Hybride Battery (80Ah). (Blue/red)

I use hybride because i like to install a Carpc.

It is now very cold and the engines starts if it is summer, best battery buy ever! :sweet:

I'll vouch for Duralast Gold. I just replaced my last one after a little over 3 years. Held up strong even through some damn hot Arizona summers.

1100W?

why do you need a battery then? if your lights dim frequently.

ive had a stinger sp1000 and now a kinetik 1200 but im also
got about 2200W total in the car.
